Question

Find the perimeter with vertices (0,5) , (6,0) ,(2,0)

Answer 1

Triangle ABC with the vertices 

A = (0,0), B = (2,4), C = (5,1)

The sides will be:

AB, BC, and AC

Calculate the total length of the sides

 

AB =(2-0,4-0)  = (2,4)  Yielding into a length of (22 +42)1/2   =4.47 

BC =(5-2, 1-4) =(3,-3)                     length    (32 + -32)1/2  =4.24

AC = (5-0,1-0) =(5,1)                      length    (52 +12)1/2    =5.1

 

Perimeter is 4.47 + 4.24 + 5.1 = 13.81
